In Search of a Regenerative Future
IDEAL COOP is a unit that conducts projects related to art, architecture, science and technology, food, education, museums, art festivals, and local communities in search of a regenerative future. Regenerativity is a key concept of a mechanism that maintains a dynamic balance between consumption and production from the micro level to the macro level. Sustainability means that this dynamic equilibrium is maintained.
How to create a regenerative society is our main subject. To tackle this subject, we are emphasizing ARTS. Using ARTS as a catalyst to move people's hearts, connect people, and sense the unknown, we design regenerative relationships between people, people and regions, and people and the environment, transcending race, country, culture, language, custom, religion, etc. That is what we are aiming for.
